Which layer of the atmosphere is made up of charged atoms?

1 answer:

7 0

The ionosphere is a shell of electrons and electrically charged atoms and molecules that surrounds the Earth, stretching from a height of about 50 km (31 mi) to more than 1,000 km (620 mi). It owes its existence primarily to ultraviolet radiation from the Sun.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

the ball travelled approximately 60 m towards north before stopping

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

First course : $a_{x}$ = 0.75 m/s², $d_{x}$ = 20 m, $u_{x}$ = 10 m/s

now, form the third equation of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

we substitute

$v_{x}$ ² = (10)² + (2 × 0.75 × 20)

$v_{x}$ ² = 100 + 30

$v_{x}$ ² = 130

$v_{x}$ = √130

$v_{x}$ = 11.4 m/s

for the Second Course:

$u_{y}$ = 11.4 m/s, $a_{y}$ = -1.15 m/s², $v_{y}$ = 0

Also, form the third equation of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

we substitute

0² = (11.4)² + (2 × (-1.15) × $d_{y}$ )

0 = 129.96 - 2.3 $d_{y}$

2.3 $d_{y}$ = 129.96

$d_{y}$ = 129.96 / 2.3

$d_{y}$ = 56.5 m

so;

|d| = √( $d_{x}$ ² + $d_{y}$ ² )

we substitute

|d| = √( (20)² + (56.5)² )

|d| = √( 400 + 3192.25 )

|d| = √( 3592.25 )

|d| = 59.9 m ≈ 60 m

Therefore, the ball travelled approximately 60 m towards north before stopping

Use the Bohr model to address this question. When a hydrogen atom makes a transition from the 5 th energy level to the 2nd, coun

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A. 2.82 eV

B. 439nm

C. 59.5 angstroms

Explanation:

A. To calculate the energy of the photon emitted you use the following formula:

$E_{n1,n2}=-13.4(\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2})$ (1)

n1: final state = 5

n2: initial state = 2

Where the energy is electron volts. You replace the values of n1 and n2 in the equation (1):

$E_{5,2}=-13.6(\frac{1}{5^2}-\frac{1}{2^2})=2.82eV$

B. The energy of the emitted photon is given by the following formula:

$E=h\frac{c}{\lambda}$ (2)

h: Planck's constant = 6.62*10^{-34} kgm^2/s

c: speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s

λ: wavelength of the photon

You first convert the energy from eV to J:

$2.82eV*\frac{1J}{6.242*10^{18}eV}=4.517*10^{-19}J$

Next, you use the equation (2) and solve for λ:

$\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.62*10^{-34} kg m^2/s)(3*10^8m/s)}{4.517*10^{-19}J}=4.39*10^{-7}m=439*10^{-9}m=439nm$

C. The radius of the orbit is given by:

$r_n=n^2a_o$ (3)

where ao is the Bohr's radius = 2.380 Angstroms

You use the equation (3) with n=5:

$r_5=5^2(2.380)=59.5$

hence, the radius of the atom in its 5-th state is 59.5 anstrongs

Which statement describes a surface wave?

katen-ka-za [31]

A surface wave is a wave that travels along the surface of a medium. The medium is the matter through which the wave travels. Ocean waves are the best-known examples of surface waves. They travel on the surface of the water between the ocean and the air. (According to ck12.org)

So your answer would be A!

In an economy, the demand for labor is given by the equation W = 15 - (1/200) L and the supply of labor is given by the equation

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

the equilibrium wage rate is 10 and the equilibrium quantity of labor is 1000 workers

Explanation:

The equilibrium wage rate and the equilibrium quantity of labor are found as the point where the equation of demand intercepts the equation of supply, so the equilibrium quantity of labor is:

$W_{Demand} = W_{Supply}$

15 - (1/200) L = 5 + (1/200) L

15 - 5 = (1/200) L + (1/200) L

10 = (2/200) L

(10*200)/2 = L

1000 = L

Then, the equilibrium wage rate is calculated using either the equation of demand for labor or the equation of supply of labor. If we use the equation of demand for labor, we get:

W = 15 - (1/200) L

W = 15 - (1/200) 1000

W = 10

Finally, the equilibrium wage rate is 10 and the equilibrium quantity of labor is 1000 workers
